Chapter 549: Exactly 7 Times!
His days were split between spending time in the War God Space and refining his Primordial Spirit.
He was drawing close to reaching the next level of his Coloured Primordial Spirit task.
Time did not pass in the Blood Mist Pavilion during cultivation. After becoming absorbed in his practice, Jiang Xiaobai was oblivious to the outside world.
During this time, the entire holy city was in upheaval!
The Towards Heaven Sect had suffered heavy losses, all just to get half of the secret cultivation method.
Besides the Sect Leader, only two early stage Great Achievers were left, but they were both dead!
Not only that, even those who were at the peak stage of Fusion after surviving tribulations suffered catastrophic losses.
It was too much to bear, severely undermining the strength of the Towards Heaven Sect.
No one knew where the other half of the secret cultivation method had gone to.
However, it was true that the Towards Heaven Sect had become the laughingstock. As a result, many of the sect’s enemies and rivals were already itching to seize the opportunity to attack.
Among them, the Sky Demon Sect was the most eager, looking for trouble with the Towards Heaven Sect every day.
But the previously aggressive Towards Heaven Sect completely shut down its mountain gate and activated its mountain protection array. Even as the people of the Sky Demon Sect were shouting outside, there was not a single response.
However, everyone understood that a skinny camel is still bigger than a horse; it wouldn’t be easy to annihilate the Towards Heaven Sect completely.
As a result, the atmosphere in the holy city had gradually become subtler, and many people were eyeing the chance to bring down the Towards Heaven Sect.
After all, if there is one less spot in the central area, another one will be added in. Everyone wanted to be the next one!
Not only that, but they were also waiting for the second half of the secret cultivation method to be revealed.
The tense atmosphere in the holy city was of no concern to Jiang Xiaobai.
At that moment, he was in the War God Space, playing around with a genius at the peak stage after surviving tribulations.
“You’re still too slow.”
Jiang Xiaobai, stepping with the mysterious Dragon Cloud Step, looked at the person chasing him with a smirk.
The person behind him, hearing these words and looking at Jiang Xiaobai’s back, felt an itching hatred.
“Damn it, so what if you’re a step ahead with your manoeuvre? If you have the guts, fight me head-on!”
Hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai burst out laughing: “Big bro, you’re at the peak stage after tribulation stage. I’m merely at the peak of Dividing the Gods stage. Don’t you think it’s a bit inappropriate for you to say this?”
“Quit bluffing, you must be that guy who’s been getting a lot of attention recently, right? A Dividing the Gods stage fighter who refuses to fight anyone but those at the peak of the Post-Tribulation stage, only you would do this!”
At that remark, Jiang Xiaobai’s brows furrowed instantly.
What does “getting a lot of attention” mean?
Was he really making waves?
But then he thought, his recent fights had been a bit crazy.
For almost half a month now, he had been either refining his own Primordial Spirit or soaking in the War God Space, constantly challenging peak stage geniuses who had survived tribulations.
From the beginning up till now, he had already grown capable of easily tackling most of the peak stage powerhouses.
Sometimes, he’d come across terrifyingly powerful people, like that beautiful girl with the pointed ears.
A single collision was enough to wipe out him.
But, to be fair, the number of people Jiang Xiaobai had challenged recently was quite high. He should have had thousands of fights by now.
“I’m talking to you, so stand still!”
The man behind him roared angrily, “I want to see just how strong this rumored genius of the War God Space really is!”
Jiang Xiaobai smirked, then abruptly stopped in his tracks. Then, he calmly thrust his sword towards the man’s forehead.
The speed was so fast that it seemed to cross all voids. In an instant, the sword was already in front of the man.
“What?!”
The man was terrified, but he didn’t even have the time to react before his skull was easily pierced.
Boom!
All that was in front of him vanished. Jiang Xiaobai found himself back in the stone room.
Looking at his more than three thousand points, Jiang Xiaobai squinted his eyes.
“Three thousand points means three laws. Including the Gate of Secrets I had before, I now have enough.”
“But humans should have dreams, right? I can’t just lay around doing nothing all day, right?”
“Will seven laws be enough? Obviously not. I want to become a miracle that no one before or after me can replicate!”
Jiang Xiaobai laughed at the thought, already having a plan in mind.
Then, without caring about what that man had said about him notoriety or whatever, he left the War God Space and started refining his Primordial Spirit in his training room!
Refining the Primordial Spirit becomes increasingly difficult as one progresses!
After all, the tiny bit of space had already been forced through the refining process four times; where else could one find space to continue stuffing?
But that was the thing!
Men, after all, are good at stuffing things into places that they can’t really fit into!
What’s the big deal about having no room left?!
He, Jiang Xiaobai, was a man among men. What’s a little challenge to him?!
During this more than half a month, Jiang Xiaobai had experienced countless painful moments, but he had finally arrived at the last step!
He swallowed the last two drops of Spirit Elixir and started refining his Primordial Spirit with all his might!
He was just a tiny bit away from the seventh time the Primordial Spirit broke and was about to reach the true Coloured Primordial Spirit!
The pain of that last little bit was beyond his tolerance. If it hadn’t been for his determination and persistence, he wouldn’t have been able to endure it.
He didn’t know how long it was until he felt as if he had stepped into a hot spring pool. A sense of extreme comfort exploded from the depths of his spirit.
The pain of refining his Primordial Spirit was gone, replaced by an incomparable joy.
Comfortable!
It was as if he was swimming amidst the clouds, enjoying the scenery as he was wrapped in a wonderful sensation of comfort.
Bang!
A terrifying Primordial Spirit force exploded in his brain, and the momentum of his body suddenly reached a peak, like a sword piercing the sky!
But just as he was about to reach his most terrifying peak, this momentum suddenly started to recede.
In merely three or four seconds, it had returned to its normal state.
“Congratulations, Host, for completing the second phase task!”
“Rewards have been distributed!”
“Third phase task issued: infuse the seven laws into the Primordial Spirit within ten days and condense them into a Coloured Primordial Spirit to complete the total task!”
“System tip: if the host successfully completes the Coloured Primordial Spirit task, all benefits related to the Coloured Primordial Spirit will be cancelled.”
“If the host fails the task, the host will permanently lose the chance to infuse the law force into the Primordial Spirit. The system will then forcibly upgrade the host’s strength to the Early Stage of Fusion.”
Hearing the system’s voice in his mind, Jiang Xiaobai felt his mouth twitch.
What kind of punishment was this?
It was the first time he’d seen the system’s punishment being an upgrade to his strength!
As for the so-called cancellation of benefits, Jiang Xiaobai had known it all along, he also knew that those benefits referred to the exchange of law forces in the War God Space.
Knowing that time was of the essence, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t dare to waste a second. He dove right into the War God Space and began to scrounge up points like a madman!
